Bildmuseet, Contemporary art museum on Arts Campus, Umeå, Sweden
The seven-story museum building features a larch wood exterior and large windows overlooking the Ume River and northern Swedish landscape.
Established in 1981 by Umeå University, Bildmuseet relocated to its current location in 2012 in a structure designed by Henning Larsen Architects.
The museum presents exhibitions from international artists, complemented by lectures, screenings, concerts, performances, and educational programming throughout the year.
Entrance to all exhibitions, guided tours, and activities at Bildmuseet remains free of charge, with the museum shop offering art books and exhibition catalogs.
The exterior wooden panels gradually change color over time, transforming from their original larch tone to a natural grey that adapts to weather conditions.
